It's a beautiful morning in town I was headed off into the market to buy a couple of things to cook. Lucy and I needed to work extra shifts though the tips she get isn't enough at the moment but as I walked through all the people in town were whispering around, rumors? What did I miss? As I hear the fanfare trumpet...that means an announcement by the royals or if they are here I admit I never really payed much attention to it and to many people crowded there usually by the time I'm home lucy can tell me about it if it's important I carry on with the market place an grab what I need to take home maybe some hazelnut soup?

I sigh rather boredly as I read the books mother handed me she said they will help get an idea of how to find..my future Queen. I felt disgusted hearing that throwing the fairy tales she gave me all lies....it's not that I don't like the idea of love it's just I highly doubt I will find it..I've seen many I've met many but none I could feel for I didn't get that feeling mother described to me Sarah even bugs me about it that little brat knows nothing she's not the one having to prepare being the one next in line and getting this ball just for me to find the one...if it isn't a royal I feel for....I was supposed to marry someone of royalty but I scare them off..purposely. Mother can only hope Sarah will find a royal to marry..it's odd I feel I don't have the feelings she wants me to have I thought maybe that's normal considering some of the servants here are happy without love or any of those needs..I thought I could be too..why aren't I?..
*bursts through the door*
"🌸 brother!"
"🥀Jesus Christ! ugh what is it now Sarah?"
"🌸 sorry to ruin your moment at the window rather depressing...but mother called for you"
"🥀 what doesn't she call me for all those studies and training it's never enough for the woman.." I only sigh this time out of frustration leaving the room I didn't need Sarah to explain where she was every-time she called for me she's always in the same place... I walk the path to the garden of roses rather beautiful place honestly, a maze in there I like to get lost in..anywho I find her looking into the rose bush without moving a limb still as a statue I question if she really is our mother if so then what was our father like then? Was he like anything we are?...she never cared to talk about him as if we have no father..
"🥀you called mother?.."
"☠️ mhm I called for you..you know why?.."
"🥀 more studying.. training maybe.."
"☠️ no..that's not why I summoned you here.." *brushed her hand against the rose bush*
"☠️ tell me son, how does one pick out a rose.."
"🥀..well they choose the prettiest one and just..take it I guess.." she only smiled softly
"☠️ everyone says that..but roses have their thorns dear.." *she grabbed one fully bloomed facing him but her hand started bleeding as she gripped it*
"🥀 !"
"☠️ you see son..everyone always assumes you can just pick out a rose when they please assuming no consequences when they see it's the pretties to them...just like people who fall in love at first sight..yes take your chance take the risk doesn't hurt right?..wrong to pick a rose you must handle it with care" she dropped the rose with her blood in hand going back to the bush pulling out plant cutters from her pocket in the apron she wore out here
"☠️ you can't always avoid thorns..you'll get cuts getting the one rose you seek it's never easy *snip snip snip..* but gently take a hold on one at its late bud stage..take the thorns out *cuts the rose from the bush gently pulling it out* get to know this little rose..watch it bloom right in front of you you'll see the true beauty it held taking its time to flourish..you'll know you made the right choice just seeing it grows.. if you love it that much...appreciate every moment of it" she held the rose grabbing my hand giving me the rose with the bloodless hand
"☠️ as you can see the difference in my hands how I handled each rose one only with a few cuts..one ended in blood ..it's what it really takes to pick a rose..do you understand son?"
"🥀...I think I do.."
"☠️heh..even if you don't you will eventually dear..now we have 3 days time before the ball and everyone from the kingdom comes we have it early so you can meet everyone it'll end at midnight so get your rest and look your best" she passed by me with a sly smile
"🥀 yes ma'am.." I turn to look at her
"🥀 wait!...will I finally get to be happy mother?.." she turns her head to look back at him
"☠️ I don't know son..you tell me" and just like that she walked away..what does she mean by that?..none the less I'll get myself prepared for that day..it'll be a bore

It didn't take me long to get the simple groceries I got home putting the basket down
"Lucy?"
"💟 oh your back I assume you didn't hear the grand news?.."
"No I assumed you'd tell me I was to busy getting us something to eat"
"💟 how did you miss what's going on the whole town is talking about it!"
"Well please inform me, what is going on?"
"💟 e e e e e e e! The royal queen is setting up a masquerade ball! And everyone is invited!"
"...Pardon me but what?."
"💟 this is the most exhilarating thing to happen in the kingdom it'll happen by the afternoon in 3 days time that gives us enough to make our gowns!"
"Lucy they must be joking us? We're commoners what do they want us in their castle for?"
"💟 I don't know but pleeeeaaase this is a once in a life time we can dine and dance and feel so glamorous it'll be exciting and maaaybe~"
"Seriously Lucy?"
"💟 whaaat it's true we can find some fuuun~ I know I will imagine how it is to fuck in their royal palace-"
"Lucy no!"
"💟 oh but come on at least let's go we may regret it if we don't...pleeeeaaase for meee"
"...alright fine what the hell it just might be fun"
"💟 eeee! We're gonna make the best gowns for the ball will look so beautiful"
"But don't we need?/"
"💟 already got that handled and boss says he's busy the whole town is sooo let's get started come on"
"But what about-" before I could finish she pulled me away from the groceries into a room with papers and pencils scissors and fabrics of our favorite color oh she'll look so beautiful in magenta fabric it'll bring out her eyes wonder what colors I should wear...
.
.
.
After choosing the fabrics based on material and color and sketching out our designs lucy and I got to work cutting out the parts we needed to stitch together..remind me why She didn't use the money to buy a gown?...oh I assume this is more fun for her considering she always liked designing gowns I admit it's fun drawing it I'm just not to well with stitching but Lucy luckily helped out how I could do better and managed she went with a more ball gown design she always wanted to feel like a princess with me I designed what my heart and mind put together I bet it'll look lovely (tell me y'all what would you design for your gown if going to a masquerade ball?) I went with a off shoulder and more thin gown then a huge puffy one just so I could get around easier knowing most galls here will use tons of layers I don't have enough for that it'll be just right not to be nor skin tight a right type of flowy I am working my hardest with Lucy as we did measure each other's size the corsets we chose for the gowns compliment them so well through out the two days we worked hard on them but of course we took some breaks I even went through our stuff to see what we could add on and use to look our best I enjoyed this time with Lucy she especially had fun with this we are so close to being done with this it's almost....

I sigh with dread this time it's the final day this afternoon all those guests will arrive I don't understand why mother wanted a masquerade ball..I look down at the rose she gave me 'is this what she meant?..the lesson she taught me does it have to do with the ball?..' never mind I probably won't be with the guest for long.....And so it begins.
As the ball had begun guest from the kingdom came about being greeted by the servants and led to the ballroom where everyone feast an dine dancing together to their surprise everyone had dressed so elegantly from what they could find and put together to impress everyone and maybe the royal family ,only for the queen to watch in amusement..oddly enough she pushed Peter to talk to the guest get to know what he's soon to be ruling as well as hoping he'd find a bride
"☠️ go on you'll need to deal with them someday if your going to be king and rule this kingdom oh and I see you kept the rose~" she got up and tucked the rose in my pocket on my suit smiling at me..and I wouldn't say it was an innocent smile
I have obliged to my mothers order and went around in the ballroom honestly these peasants are rather..boring ? Should I say that? No no it's just..maybe it's me it's always me Sarah is of course having a wonderful time with them as if she's one of them I only sigh frustrated I needed some air mother won't be able to tell I'm gone anyways she drinking with her servants
I head out towards the garden it's a beautiful night isn't it? The moon shines better then the sun ever had in its lifetime the stars are out to dance with the deep blue sky it's rather peaceful the way it feels shining on this garden making it feel magi-
...I hear humming well that kinda made it creepy? Although angelic but rather creepy, I look about it's coming from the little maze as I follow through her voice I peak over and it's a girl? How did she find a way in here?...more importantly who is she..she continued humming looking up at the stars she's wearing a mask as well but somehow..everything I looked at had already taken my breathe away..she looked so beautiful in that gown I'd fit her so well on that perfect body the moon glistening upon her skin those lips..oh her beautiful eyes...........wait a minute
"Uh hello? Mister stalker guy? it's rather rude to stare..not to mention creepy"
"🥀 oh! I'm terrible s-sorry my lady I'm just surprised..how did you get in here?"
"Heh,Well if you must know I am not sure I came out of the ball room and went in here and now here I am such a lovely place isn't it?"
"🥀Not as lovely as you.."
"What?" Her face flushed
"🥀Nothing! Um..why aren't you in the ballroom with everyone else? They are seemingly to have a most wonderful time"
"Then why aren't you in there?"
"🥀 hm well touché darling" I come to sit next to her
"🥀 in all honesty my mother made me interact with them and my sister is having a wonderful time I don't feel..like I should be in there.."
"Oh..well my friend wanted to come here she thought we'd have the night of our lives we went in together but she kinda left me alone..Even with so many people around I hated the feeling I got being around so many people..cause even when around a crowd I still felt-"
"🥀 alone?"
"Y-yes, heh you know the feeling?"
"🥀mhm more then enough I always been alone I hate my sister and mother..I always thought the issue was me but I've come to realize that's not it it was them who made me feel this way.."
"Oh that I can understand...the town is something isn't it?.."
"🥀 haha..yeah it is and so are the people.."
"I know right? It's all to well..can't believe I came to this ball.."
"🥀hm? Why did you come?"
"To say the least, I didn't originally plan to come to this dance it was my friend Lucy who wanted to come, you see with the 3 days time before the ball she and I worked on these dresses I made this one with her she's really great with fabrics I had a wonderful time with her doing this..I didn't want to let her down she wanted to have this feeling of royalty since she was a little girl just the feeling otherwise she doesn't mind where she's at in life.."
"🥀 your so sweet.."
"Huh?"
"🥀I mean um your so sweet to have done that for her even getting out of your comfort zone just so she could experience what she always experience"
"Oh yes of course..and honestly I didn't mind the food they served here that for sure"
"🥀 oh really ? Was it to die for?"
"You have no idea I didn't think they'd have my favorite meals okay and Lucy didn't want to eat till after I was rather hungry"
"🥀 oh famished we're you? Haha don't mind at all that's rather cute of you"
"I-is it now? Heh..." she flushed under that mask looking away I slid my hand over to hers when she looked back to me
"🥀 I'm rather glad you came..this is the most joy I've had in life.."
"O-oh that's rather so sweet of you I'm happy to have brought you joy..oh but it is rather getting late now I should check on Lucy..it was nice knowing you dear" just as she got up and was about to leave I get ahold of her hand
"🥀wait!"

And just like that I felt something as turned around to see him holding my hand. It's such a strange feeling I looked up at him those eyes were in need..I can't describe it but we froze there looking at each other till I heard the music change from the ballroom it's rather slow..(I'd say any slow Disney song or music to dance to this I think about beauty and the beast that's my favorite-)
He stood more straight holding my hand giving it a kiss ! T-that made me feel flustered oh I hope he can't see it with the mask
"🥀may I have this dance my lady?.."
I took a moment looking at the ball I hope Lucy was fine..I look back at him and nod the hand in mine wrapping our hands our fingers intertwined like golden string as he pulled me close his arm wrapping at my waist it gave a warm feeling being this close to him our chests touching although I am a little under him but what ever
"You know Um..I was never one to dance I'm not sure how.."
"🥀that's fine it's an easy movement just follow my lead darling~ 1 2 3 1 2 3 12 3"
He had repeated to me as I followed his movement considering Im more stiff so dancing wasn't really something for me but this was something different I felt so light with him as I look up at him with glee a soft smile on my face
"🥀 your getting it darling~ your a natural~"
"Pft no I'm not your rather silly"
"🥀 id be silly for you and just for you~"
"Haha oh slow down I don't even know you that well or your name"
"🥀Well we can get to know each other right now ask my anything my darling"
"Hmm well~" and just like that I forgot the time we had talked through our dancing it was so wonderful I layed my head on his chest hearing his heartbeat it's so soothing our hands intertwined this felt like a fairy tale as he had asked me the same I told him about how I was raised who I was raised with how I met Lucy and how we worked at this diner together until..
"🥀 darling I wish to know your name.."
"Hm? Well my name is y/n.."
"🥀oh that's such a beautiful name for a beautiful lady such as yourself"
"Pft I haven't even shown you my face as well as I need to know your name too.."
I pull off slolwy looking up at him
"🥀 I was rather not a fan of my name or the way I am but.." he took the mask off first oh those eyes his face I couldn't help but stare but slowly reached for my mask taking it off I felt my face get warm as he stared at me
"W-what's wrong?"
"🥀nothing..nothing is wrong your just..your as beautiful and amazing as I would ever hope for..your perfect~"
"Oh stop none of that is true now you have to tell me your name"
"🥀Oh of course it's only fair but darling you really are the most beautiful thing I ever laid my eyes on *puts that rose in your hair he got from his mother looking at you rather love struck* and...my name is pe-"
"Peter kiiiing! Your highness! Your royal majesty request for your presence!"
"🥀seriously? Right now?"
"Wait your highness? Peter is that your name?" I feel shocked is that's his name then..he's the prince?!
"🥀 um weeell"
"Um ya know I have to get going as well your uh majesty is waiting heh I gotta go"
"🥀 wait! Darling!" I'm sorry Peter I do actually have to go for Lucy it's close to midnight everyone is suppose to leave by that time and..my feelings for the prince..oh y/n why the prince your not ready for that life if he even were to want you... no! He's royalty he has to marry a princess I'm no princess!
.
.
.
.
I got away that night finding Lucy she was a tad bit tipsy but luckily everyone else was and she was unharmed I took her into the carriage we came in and luckily they dropped us off what nice fellows they were..I got her inside I helped her change more comfortable and laid her in her room heh I really hope she had a wonderful time
.
.
.
I go to my room getting undressed and into the sleeping gown I undoing my hair seeing out the window- huh? Oh the rose he gave me..I sigh laying in my bed and looking out at the night sky..oooh it's already reminding me of him I can't believe it I miss that feeling so much I sniff the rose it felt so soft I loved it..do I love him?..no no no y/n...but..why do I wish to see him again...
